Sergio, the intelectual

Ambition: To contradict the opinions of the masses. Whatever they may be. To be rewarded with a lifelong millionaire pension just for existing. Writing literature that will change the world as we know it (but not just yet).

Peculiarities: It is possible that he never wears pants.

Fernando, the store employee

Ambition: Proving that book, record and dvd store employees are true cultural advisors and not just the people that fetch this book from that shelf.

Peculiarities: The shape of his head changes often. It might be hormone related.

Jacinto, the journalist

Ambition: To evolve professionally and have his name printed in all known font types. One day, perhaps, being invited to comment something on TV.

Peculiarities: Cries himself to sleep every night while hugging his pillow.

Caldas, the critic

Ambition: To prove his intellectual superiority in all matters. Ridding the world of bad taste in all its aspects (that is, any taste unlike his own).

Peculiarities: It is said he might have a glass eye.

Tomás, the believer

Ambition: Spreading the Word while intertwining religious experience with the contemporary world. To ascend to sainthood.

Peculiarities: Has witnessed a manifestation of the Virgin, but didn't tell anyone because it happened in a public restroom.
